Imperial Project Working With BLM On Drilling Objectives

VANCOUVER – KORE Mining Ltd. reported that the Imperial Project team, located in Imperial County, California, is continuing to work closely with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to: (i) permit regional exploration drilling in the 28-kilometer Mesquite-Imperial-Picacho District (Regional Exploration Drilling) and (ii) permit drilling to advance the existing Imperial gold deposit (“Imperial Zone”) toward feasibility and mine permitting (Imperial Zone Drilling).

“We continue to have success in our regional exploration program at the Imperial project as well as in our continued efforts to build stakeholder support for mine development,” said, Scott Trebilcock, President and CEO.  “KORE is committed to advancing the Imperial project as expeditiously as possible, and while we are dissatisfied that current circumstances require a shift in the Imperial Zone Drilling permitting strategy, we are encouraged by the support from local stakeholders and our regional exploration efforts. Further details will be released as they become available on both of these fronts and we also anticipate receiving our drill permits at our Long Valley project in the near term.”
